I'm in the hospital right now recovering from a surgery, and these covers are making me laugh hard as fuck. How does anyone think these covers are a good idea?

for real the Master & Margarita cover is good and not unfitting at all donno why it always catches flak here, have you not read it?

Just finished Master and Margarita while in the hospital. 10/10
